1. Last Days of Production

    08th  August  2010  -  JeffM

    The next 5 days I hope to be full of popping, skating, rushing rises, jumping fish and a big sigh of relief. We’re wrapping things up. As this schedule is winding down I’m realizing that I probably won’t have the DVD ready for release until the first week of October….Hope you can wait that long. Special thanks to Western Rivers Conservancy who committed to another sponsorship of Skagit Master DVDs. (westernrivers.org)

    They join Sage, Rio, Simms, Watermaster and Leland Fly Fishing Outfitters. We are very fortunate to have these great companies on our roster.

  2. Perfect Rod/Line Combo for tight spots

    19th  July  2010  -  The Staff

    Thanks to the people at SAGE and Rio Products, we got to cast many new rods and match them to various lines during the production of Skagit Master Volume 2. One killer outfit turned out to be a Z Axis 7126-4 and 525 gr. Skagit Short with 12 feet of T-14 or T-17. In tight quarters, the short dense head and short rod jacked huge flies from the craziest casting positions. Overhanging limbs, blow down, streamside brush on outside bends, all presented a challenge but the rod line combination made placing a shallow D loop possible. It jacked everything we tossed at the steelhead, and Scott fishes some pretty heavy flies..
